VIDEO: Barcelona's Dani Alves eats banana thrown at him by racist fan

Alves picks up the banana eats it, kicks the ball and goes on to score 2 goals

Racism is going viral. This is the new age of racial conflict coming from UKip MPs to NBA team owners. US President, Barack Obama had to step in and condemn LA Clippers owner,
Donald Sterling to be precise, for allegedly making racist remarks. He was said to have told his girlfriend not to bring black people to the games. 

A few days ago, a number of UKip  candidates allegedly made racist comments against black people. Party candidate William Henwood, claimed that Lenny Henry 'should emigrate to a black country while Andre Lampitt said 'most Nigerians are bad people' and Islam is an 'evil organisation' he also said he was happy that AIDS is reducing the population of Africans.

And yet according to a Sunday Times YouGov poll, UKIP has surged into a lead over UK'S Labour Party in the European elections for the first time. So, this means that Europeans favour UKip's racist MPs.
 
The most recent racist incident happened during Barcelona's 3-2 win over Villarreal on Sunday when Barcelona defender Dani Alves experienced bigotry first hand when a fan at El Madrigal Stadium threw a banana at him as he prepared to take a corner kick. 

But Alves kept his cool, picking up the banana, peeling it open and taking a bite before serving a cross into the box without missing a beat. When he was later interviewed, he said the banana gave him energy to help his team score two goals.

Alves and his teammates had just observed a minute's silence and were already overcome with emotion, playing with heavy hearts after the death of former Barcelona coach Tito Vilanova, who died of cancer on Friday at the age of 45.


Alves is one of several footballers who have been subjected to racial abuse over the years - including monkey chants - from fans throughout his career in Spain.

This latest incidents show that racism is on the rise from US to Europe. Racism is an idea which started in Europe in the 18th century in which Europeans and American whites propagated that whites were better than black people. 

But intelligence tells us that only obtuse people will believe in racism. If all human beings came out of Africa, then, intelligence dictates that there is only once race.
